LA Tech Set for Final Two Midweek Contests

[dawg80]

Crigger is struggling.

I won't say the Dawgs have a low baseball IQ, but I can't say they have a high one either. Reflective of lousy to mediocre coaching.

Oh well, now 32-15 and in contention in the conference. What more can you ask for, eh?

By the hair of our chinny chin chin and I’m not talking Matulia’s chin, Burroughs is 3-3 against NW as Tech’s coach. That’s not near good enough. Maybe before we play these losing record teams Burroughs should quit with the crap about how good they are and just tell our guys we’re head and shoulders better, so go out there and kick their asses. He always talks about playing loose and having fun, but oh by the way these guys are way better than their record. The truth is they’re not we just play down to them that way. I’m tired of it.

Crigger has been overworked because Burroughs doesn't trust anyone else to finish a game. If Burroughs keeps running him out there every game, Tech will start losing some of those. That almost happened tonight.

This is one of those "a win is a win" games. Need to come out strong this weekend!

If I counted correctly we finished 13-6 vs. in-state schools. Good baseball is played in Louisiana. So, I wouldn't diss most of the teams, like NSU, they are actually fairly good. And "baseball is baseball" the sport lends itself for so-called "upsets."

We have our own issues.

Meanwhile LSU went 10-3 versus in state competition and we know who they lost to twice, so yeah Louisiana schools can be good but they’re not so good that Tech shouldn’t do better against them.

Looking a little further Tulane is 9-3 in state and ULL is 8-4. Something else this tells me is that Tech is playing too many in state schools. How about let’s branch out some and leave our marker throughout Texas more.

Yeah, but LSU played 2 games against Southern and one against Grambling when TECH & ULL did not. Hell ULM did not even play Gram or SU. Looks like Tulane played one against Southern.
LSU just padding that record

So, the top 4 baseball programs in the state, Tech, LSU, Tulane, and ULL are a combined 40-16 vs. in-state competition (yeah, I know some of those are against each other, still...), who the hell is losing all those games? I guess SU, Grambling, ulm...
